flowers. A large. automobile could with diffculty carry the flowers to the cemetery. In conclusion. before his prayer, the Rev.

Dr. Crothers said: "It was with unspent power, with undiminished hope and faith in the great influence to which he consecrated his life that death found him. What shall we say? Shall we not simply feel that his life still moves us, and that the power of endless love is there? He trusted. in the Eternal Righteousness. He feared not death.

He lived right on, and in that same spirit in. which he lived, may we think of him always." Several photographs were taken of Professor Hooper after his death from which a bust is to be made. Albany, August 4-Professor Lewis Frederick Pilcher, who was closely associated with Professor Hooper in the development of the extensive scheme for agricultural education on Long Island, today expressed his sense of ad personal loss and his appreciation of the late director of the Brooklyn Institute. "The State of New York as well as the City of Brooklyn mourns the passing one of the Te greatest educators of our day. Coming first, under his influence as a student.

at the Adelphi Academy, later as lecturer at the Brooklyn Institute, I have followed his career with admiring and sympathetic interest. It was my privilege be associated with him in matters of -fixital interest up to the time his death, "As a power for good, as a stimulus to the youth of our city, AS a consistent advocate of all things that had to do with the mental, moral and material advancement of Brooklyn, Dr. Hooper occupied a commanding position. It seems dimcult to realize in the suddenness of the shock of his death that the tremendous vitality and which energy served which as he the always chief exhibited element of success In the many activitiescivil and educational-with which he was connected, has ceased."

Simple Method Suggested by Yale's Forestry School Head Indorsed by Park Experts The fate of the Eastern Parkway trees is not yet sealed, according to statements made today by officials of the Public Service Commission and the Park Department. Travis H. Whitney, secretary of the Commission, denied emphatically that the Public Service Commission engineers had reported that the preservation of the elms was impossible, and that they would have to be destroyed by the excavation for the Eastern Parkway subway. No definite decision has yet been reached, he declared, and none will be reached until Chief Engineer Craven returns from his vacation, which will be about the end of August. Park Commissioner Raymond V.

Ingersoll has received the assurance of the Commission that no steps will be taken by the members of that body regarding the trees without consultation with him, and that any plan for the destruction of the trees would have to be justified in the eyes of both the Commission and his department before it was assented to. The Park Department will be given ample opportunity, it was stated yesterday, to take care of the situation. Inquiry at the office of the Park Department today elicited the Information that the plan for saving the trees, which was suggested Professor J. W. Toumey, head of the Forestry School at Yale, had not been rejected as Impracticable, as was rumored, and that the officials there still have every reason to believe that the plan 19 a feasible one.

E. H. Moore, J. J. Levison and John Herlihy, the three arboriculturists of the Brooklyn Park Department, have all indorsed Professor Toumey'8 views in the matter.

Under the plan no especial steps would have to be taken, other than the exercise of care on the part of the subway builders. The plans for the subway call for a cut of 61 feet. This would leave a space of 4 feet 9 inches between either side of the cut and the bordering line of trees. By careful shoring of the sides of the cut, so as to preserve this space of earth and by laying a pipe line along the surface of the ground, near the trees, 80 as to furnish them a constant supply of water, the tree experts are confident that they can be preserved.

S. Postoffice Officials Expect, However, to Send Out All Foreign Mail Soon. The first notice of the suspension of international money order service has been received by the United States Postoffice Department from Belgium. Word of the suspension arrived this morning and no money orders will be issued or paid to Egypt or the Soudan, either, commencing today until further notice, those two countries also having notifled the United States of a suspension of the international money orders. All European mail matter delivered at the Brooklyn Postoffice 1s now shipped from the Manhattan office, ARsistant Postmaster William Woods declared here today.

Postmaster Morgan in Manhattan, announced today that so far there has been very little interruption of the European mail save that caused by the withdrawal of the Hamburg-American and North German Lloyd steamers. Because of the fact that Germany is at war with England and France and that the sailings of the regular lines have been cancelled the officials at the New York Postoffice have been holding up the mail for Germany until it can be sent by a steamer touching at some neueral port, such as Rotterdam in the Netherlands. Ordinarily the German mail, even when carried by the German steamers, is landed at France, for quicker delivery. La Lorraine of the French Line, sailed today with 1,400 sacks of mail. The Lusitania, of the Cunard Line, which sailed for England early this morning under the convoy of two English battle-ships carried almost 1,000 sacks of mails, The next steamer sailing is the St.

Paul of the American line for Plymouth, Cherbourg and Southampton, which it is stated, will positively depart on Friday. The Postoffice Department la assured of one sailing a week by the vessels of the American Line, and at a pinch the officials declare they could send all the English and French mail by these ships. According to present plans the German and Austrian mail will be dispatched on August 11 by the Rotterdam, sailing for the Netherlands. So far the Postoffice authorities have received no word of the interruption of the mail service between other ropean countries, such 8.8 Belgium, Greece, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Italy, and they anticipate none. nal calendar, August 4.

"Turned Tail and Ran" That is what Abraham Lincoln said July, 1863, upon a certain occasion in speaking of pessimists.

The tribe of pessimists still continues large. Though we have no war of our own it circulates in the clubs and marks down the President, and every movement to better Pooh conditions. Fast as the lamps of hope are lit it turns them down to cast shadows. But you cannot down New York and its big men. This store is fit for business and every day it is found the right sorts of fresh goods, any one with half an can see that we are giving the people what they need.

Full assortments. Good service. Very low prices, Justice in all things. Strangers and citizens are as wel. come to look as they are to buy.

There are many summer hospitallties for holidaying people, and we have souvenir things at little cost for the home folk. (Signed) He August 5, 1914.
